WHSV: "The most talked-about project among the public was Route 55 which runs through Strasburg and Front Royal."

"It’s definitely helpful for the CTB (Commonwealth Transportation Board) to hear from the public and also from local leaders. A lot of times at these public meetings we have a member of the board of supervisors, a county administrator, a town council member, that sort of thing. Sometimes it’s good to hear from folks who have requested this money,” said Ken Slack, VDOT communications specialist.

VDOT holds public hearing on future projects 

• why is "the most talked-about project" conspicuously absent from vdot's list of proposed long term plans?
• who (names) represents strasburg with vdot? 
• specifically, how is the town working with vdot to get the horrendous route 55 intersection in strasburg addressed? 
• who (names) liaisons with strasburg's representative on the CTB?
• how often (dates) have they met?
• specifically, how often do they regularly meet to discuss strasburg's transportation needs?
• have strasburg representatives suggested to front royal representatives that a coalition be formed to push for improvements to "the most talked-about project"? if not, then why not?

citizens of strasburg want to know. 

thank you, WHSV, for your report. without your report we wouldn't know. the town doesn't inform its citizens with what's going on between the town and vdot. who knows? perhaps it's because nothing is going on between town representatives and vdot on a regular or a specific project basis.
